Question

An inclined plane is also called _____.

Answer 1

1. An inclined plane is a rigid sloping surface over which heavy loads can be raised or lowered to a certain height or depth.
2. The mechanical advantage of an inclined plane is the ratio of the length of the plank to the vertical height of the load raised. It can be used to lift heavy loads.

Hence, an inclined plane is also called a ramp.
